In Need of a New Bicycle? EXCITING NEWS:
Summer Bike Week begins July 6th – Your Participation Could Earn You a New Bicycle!
The CPS Wellness Department has teamed up with the Cambridge Community Development Department to offer Summer Bike Week 2020 starting July 6th, with
new bicycles as participation-based prizes!
What is Summer Bike Week 2020?
This summer starting July 6th, a virtual Bike Week will be available for all CPS students JK-12 through the
CPSD Wellness website. The virtual bike week will be a 5 lesson mini-series introducing bicycle-riding technique, an introduction to mechanics and at-home maintenance to keep your bicycle in working condition, and lessons on rules of the road and smart safety to help you graduate from riding in parks and neighborhoods to riding throughout Cambridge.
Who is Summer Bike Week for?
All CPS students JK-12 are eligible to participate in Summer Bike Week. While many of you may feel you are already capable of riding a bicycle at an advanced level, there is always something new for everyone to learn - whether it be why we shift gears and finding out about pinch flats or learning where your brakes are (hint - they’re not on your handlebars!). Don’t know how to ride a bike? No problem, there will be an instructional video to help you learn!
How do I enter to win a bicycle?
Each day of the week (Monday-Friday) starting
July 6th we will post a few 5-10 minute videos on the
CPSD Wellness website. There will be a short assignment for you to complete based on the videos to demonstrate your understanding of the material and verify your participation. Videos and assignments will be posted each based on your grade level (JK-3 or 4-12), so be sure to click on the correct links for your grade level.
Students who complete all assignments will be entered into a random drawing for a new bicycle. The award will be in the form of a gift credit to Cambridge Bicycle sponsored by the Cambridge Community Development Department. The winning students will also be provided with locks, helmets, and lights.
Students will have until July 17th at 5PM to submit all assignments.
How do I find out more information about Bike Week 2020, CPS Wellness, or the Safe Routes to School Program?
Bike Week 2020 information is available on the
CPSD Wellness website.
